read the file
save the last line
read it again at a certain interval
check if the last line has changed
if it has: save it again
repeat the previous 3 lines
or check the filedatetime at certain intervals
if it has changed, open the file and read the last line(s)
remember the filedatetime (created)
look for the filesystemobject for this
and for how to open textfiles
